Part A
The company has specify image sourcing and company’s trademarks and logos since the day I started. Try avoiding images that has watermarks or images that has copyright. If it has copyright, we either avoid them or find a way to give credit to the author.
I was told the logo and trademark aren’t to be distorted in any ways when making the design. They also have other guidelines regarding this matter as well.

Part B
For my Internship, I didn’t have to sign any Non-Disclosure Agreement but it’s touched upon. I was told to track my hours and we talk about it in our of our group meetings.
Non-Disclosure Agreement are important because it prevents information from the company to be leaked out. There are other rules such as No Disclosure, No Copying/Modifying, Unauthorize Use and other rules.
If any rules are broken, it can be taken to court and you’ll be faced a large fines and other punishments as violation of the agreement. Once it’s signed, these are taken effect and are taken seriously.
